Chapter 1398: Yuanfeng Thirty-Eight Years
Jiang Wang was silent for a while, recalling the Marquis who was stripped of his clothes and whipped to the point of being unable to stand at the ceremony. He finally digested the news, and then said: "What Master Wu means is that...it was Tian Xili back then. How dare he move?"
Lin Youxie did not answer directly, but told: "Wanling Freezing Snow is not a naturally occurring poison, it is not even considered a poison. It was first refined because of a Taoist technique called Sanjiu Hanchan. This Taoism The technique is powerful and strange, and the cultivation process is very difficult. Only one monk in a million can master it, but with the help of Wanling Dongxue, it can be achieved quickly. "
Jiang Wang thought to himself, this is similar to the introduction of magic to immortal magic.
Lin Youxie added: "The production process of Wanling Dongxue is to take the blood from the fingertips of nine babies with completely different fates, and then take the blood from the brows of nine girls with completely different personalities, and take the blood from nine adults with different professions. The apex blood of the heart, coupled with the life souls of nine kinds of creatures, are smelted together with the secret method of Sanjiu Hancicada... and finally it will form a snowflake, because there are more than ten thousand possible combinations of raw materials for this thing, which is impossible to calculate, so It’s called Wanling Dongxue.”
"Later, someone discovered that even if it is not used for Sanjiu Hanchan's cultivation, Wanling Frozen Snow itself, once it comes into contact with human blood, will be instantly poisoned by cold poison, and there is no way to save it. After that, it was regarded as a poison, and it is located in Among the worst poisons in the world, everyone’s finished product is different.”
"After Wanling Dongxue comes into contact with human blood, only by taking the antidote for Wanling Dongxue within three breaths can he be saved. But even if Wanling Dongxue is recognized, who can prepare the appropriate antidote within three breaths? Antidote? If you don’t know which nine kinds of fates, which nine kinds of personalities, which nine kinds of professions and which nine kinds of creatures, there is no way to cure this cold poison... Who can except the Wanling Snow Refiner? Do you know?"
"So there is almost no solution to the frozen snow of all spirits, and at the same time, every piece of it is unique in the world."
"At the moment of life and death, what can be left behind is very limited. I think the clue left by Grandpa Wu is that he found Wanling Dongxue in Tian Xili that is completely consistent with the case of Concubine Lei. In other words, he finally found it. The evidence confirms that Tian Xili was the one who made Wanling Dongxue. "And this is probably the reason why he died."
Hearing this, Jiang Wang couldn't help but think of the pictures of all living beings in the Changsheng Palace.
Is the observation of the various behaviors of living beings in the mural of the living beings also Jiang Wuqi's analysis of the cold poison in his body?
Has His Highness, the Eleventh Highness, been observing whose fingertip blood, brow blood, heart apex blood... made the cold poison he was born with?
Perhaps there is no solution to the cold poison entering his life, but even if it can be alleviated a little bit and given a little more time, maybe there will be a different result...
Jiang Wang sighed: "Presumably even if there was any evidence of Wanling Rongxue, it would have been destroyed now, right?"
"That's the way it is." Lin Youxie said.
Originally, if we had that piece of evidence, we could rely on Wanling Dongxue's unique characteristics to nail Tian Xili to death. But now the evidence has completely disappeared and Uriel is dead...
In a case like this, the most difficult thing is not the investigation. In terms of investigation ability alone, there are only a few people in the world who can compare with Uriel. But the difficult thing about this case is the person we have to face, the shadow that swallows everything.
Even though he knew that the sun should be shining brightly outside at this time, he still felt that the night was long and long with no end in sight.
"That's what happened." Jiang Wang cheered up and said, "We already know that the assassins back then were related to the Osawada family. They have already made a clear direction and locked the target. We will investigate slowly, and sooner or later they will be revealed. Comes from the horse’s feet.”
"No." Lin Youxie shook his head: "The person who entered the palace to assassinate Concubine Lei was not from the Osawada clan."
"Not from the Osawada clan?" Jiang Wang felt a little confused.
Lin Youxie said seriously: "The Osawada clan probably provided Wanling Dongxue, but the person who actually did it has nothing to do with them."
"Wait a minute, you mean that the assassination of Concubine Lei was the result of the cooperation of several parties?" Jiang Wang said very keenly: "How could they be divided into several parties for such a big event like one accidentally ransacking the house and destroying the family? Calling someone to do it is unreasonable and not a smart choice.”
From the perspective of the murderer, for a major event like the assassination of Concubine Lei, the fewer people involved, the better, and the simpler the process, the better. One more person means more danger of leaks. One more link means one more chance of exposure.
"This is also what makes me confused." Lin Youxie said: "But this is the evidence we have, and the evidence does not lie."
Jiang Wang pressed his forehead: "No...if the person who entered the palace to assassinate Concubine Lei had nothing to do with the Osawatian family, then why did Senior Uriel investigate the Tian family for so many years?"
"Because of my father." Lin Youxie said: "When my father was investigating the assassination of Concubine Lei Gui, he arrested a person with his own hands. It turned out that he had arrested the wrong person, but the person had died in prison. Beiya suffered as a result. Huge pressure, and then... the news that my father committed suicide out of fear of blame."
"The man my father arrested was named Tian Fen, a member of the Osawatian family. At that time, he was the deputy general of the North Gate of the Imperial City Guard and was responsible for the security of the nine city gates in the north of Linzi. When the assassination of Concubine Lei Gui occurred, He was drinking in the brothel. Later investigation proved that he was not present at all, had nothing to do with the case of Concubine Lei, and was completely innocent..."
How could such an innocent person die in prison?
Jiang Wang said: "Others say that your father arrested the wrong person, so he committed suicide out of fear of punishment. But Senior Uriel didn't believe that he would commit suicide out of fear of punishment, let alone that he arrested the wrong person... So for all these years, he has never given up on the Tian family. The investigation?”
"Now Wanling Dongxue's clues have explained everything." Lin Youxie said seriously: "My father definitely did not arrest the wrong person back then, but the original evidence was eliminated."
Looking at Lin Youxie's firm expression, Jiang Wang suddenly remembered that when he was overseas, Lin Youxie once lost control of his emotions because he asked Lin Youxie whether he would never arrest the wrong person...
It turns out there is such a story.
During the years when Lin Kuang was denied, she worked hard to solve the case, never caring about the danger, and just to rebuild the reputation of the Qingpai family... she didn't want to "catch the wrong person" again.
"I still haven't figured it out." Jiang Wang said slowly: "Since you are sure that there is a problem with the Tian family, why do you insist that the assassin has nothing to do with the Osawa Tian family?"
"After my father died, the case was shelved. Grandpa Wu wanted to restart the investigation several times, but was rejected and had to resign. During that time, he stayed anonymous and visited many places..."
Lin Youxie said: "Grandpa Wu discovered that the assassin who assassinated Concubine Lei had appeared in the same restaurant as He Fu before the incident. Of course, no one saw them communicating. But this in itself has formed a clue. "
"Uncle He Guo?" Jiang Wang asked: "So you were sure that the current queen was the real murderer?"
"No." Lin Youxie shook his head: "You don't know He Fu. This person has mediocre talents and does not have the ability to run such a big thing. The only time that killer appeared in front of people was in the same place as He Fu. The restaurant... was obviously a frame-up, so it was at that time that Grandpa Wu eliminated the current queen from the list of suspects."
"Who would have thought?" Her expression was a bit bitter: "The target of Grandpa Wu's initial suspicion was the current queen, because there were not many people who could annihilate all the clues in the palace. Later, after analysis and verification, he thought it was not the case, so she was Excluded. Until this time Feng Gu used suicide to emphasize to us that the real murderer behind the scenes was the queen. "
Jiang Wang pondered: "The killer and He Fu appeared in the same restaurant, maybe it was the current queen's plan to make people suspicious. It was to use He Fu's stupidity to make people think that this matter was framed, so as to exonerate the queen herself. suspicion."
"Looking back now, it is certainly possible..." Lin Youxie said: "But Grandpa Wu could only investigate on his own at that time..."
"The assassin who killed Concubine Lei was an unknown person. No trace could be found. He died on the spot, and there was no way to trace him.
But that in itself is also a clue.
Before taking action, except for that one time in the restaurant, he had no contact with anyone and left no traces in the world.
It cannot be cultivated by ordinary forces.
He must be a dead man supported by a noble family or a powerful sect.
Of course there are many forces in the world that can meet this requirement, but when it comes to the Eastern Region and even Qi State, there are not many. "
Jiang Wang answered: "Of course the Tian family is one of them."
"The same goes for the Lei family," Lin Youxie said.
Jiang Wang frowned.
"The assassin sneaked in from Wuning Gate, and the palace guards guarding the gate were all killed after questioning. If there were any clues, they should be eliminated. But we found out that the leader of the palace guards at the time was named Zhang. He had a two-year-old son My son was already missing before the incident.”
Lin Youxie said: "We found this boy... He grew up in the Lei family and is now the deputy commander of the Lei family guard."
It has to be said that Wu Lie and Lin Youxie have worked hard for so many years, and they have gained something.
Especially Uriel, who single-handedly found out so many things without the support of Qingpai, definitely deserves the title of "a famous arrester of a generation".
But Jiang Wang only felt that he was in chaos again: "The Lei family wants to kill Concubine Lei? What are they trying to do?"
Lin Youxie looked at him and simply asked: "What if she is not dead?"
Like thunder across the night sky!
What if...Lei Guifei is not dead?
No one would believe that a pregnant woman would design a dangerous assassination scene by herself.
So, what if she didn't die?
Then the fact that the killer and He Fu appeared in the same restaurant was enough to implicate the suspicion on the current queen.
That year was the thirty-eighth year of Yuanfeng.
Three years ago, what happened was that the deposed prince was imprisoned in the Bluestone Palace. Jiang Wuliang bid farewell to the throne completely and would never be able to turn over.
The current prince also became the crown prince in the second year after the deposed prince was imprisoned in Qingshi Palace, that is, the thirty-sixth year of Yuanfeng.
In the thirty-eighth year of Yuanfeng, when Concubine Lei was assassinated, Jiang Wuhua had only been the prince for two years, and his position in the East Palace was not stable... Not to mention at that time, even today, Jiang Wuhua's position as prince is not stable. It's hardly impregnable.
Otherwise, how could the Huaying Palace, Yangxin Palace, and Changsheng Palace be erected later?
So, what if at this time, Concubine Lei Guifei was assassinated but survived, and narrowly saved her child?
How angry should the emperor be?
Deposing the queen and deposing the prince... seems to be a natural thing.
So does Concubine Lei have a chance to become the queen?
Will Concubine Lei's child have any chance of becoming a prince?
Of course there is!
If Concubine Lei designed the assassination herself, then of course all traces could be erased, and of course the assassin could be given an appropriate opportunity in the heavily guarded palace.
Just think about how bold this plan is!
The emperor was on a military expedition, and Concubine Lei was pregnant. At such a critical moment, an assassination case that shocked the East Region occurred, and the current queen was involved...
If it fails, it will be one corpse and two lives. Once discovered, death without a burial place is the least.
This is to fight for the queen's position with one's life!
"But Concubine Lei died in the end..." Jiang Wang said with an inexplicable emotion.
"So why did Feng Gu believe that the current queen was the real murderer?" Lin Youxie said: "Because the queen that Concubine Lei wanted to frame was not a character that could be manipulated at will, let alone Concubine Lei. She used a little trick to turn Concubine Lei's fake death into a real death!"
Jiang Wang murmured: "For example, secretly apply Wanling Frozen Snow on the killer's knife..."
"And the specific operation of this matter is the Tian family." Lin Youxie said sadly: "It was only last night that I figured everything out."
Yes... yes!
A large part of Lin Youxie's restoration of the case is based on speculation. There are actually very few places that can be called evidence. Because the evidence has been basically destroyed.
But Jiang Wang has believed it.
Because he has another piece of information that Lin Youxie doesn't know - that is, Jiang Wuqi also investigated the old case seventeen years ago, and with his identity and resources far stronger than Uriel, he quickly got the result, but finally chose to remain silent.
Why silent?
Only Lin Youxie's restoration of the case today can explain it!
Because the entire assassination case was designed by Concubine Lei herself.
It was Concubine Lei who was bold and designed the assassination, but her ability was limited. She faced an opponent that she was far from her, and was outmaneuvered. In the end, it led to her own death, and the child in her belly was born with cold poison!
At the last moment of her life, Concubine Lei struggled desperately on that winter night, and tried her best to save the child in her belly...
Her mood at that time... was it despair or guilt?
But in any case, her love for the child in her belly was not false.
Jiang Wuqi found out the truth, but he didn't want to blame his stupid mother again after seventeen years! Even if the case was uncovered, it might bring down the queen and create an opportunity for him to compete for the throne.
The emperor later mentioned Concubine Lei as a reminiscence.
If the case was really uncovered, what would the emperor think? What would the emperor say? How would he treat the Lei family?
So on the tombstone in that picture of all living beings, there was only "the deceased is gone".
The person is already dead, what else can he Jiang Wuqi say?
Thanks to the book friend Ai Mao Er Gou for becoming the leader of this book!
This is the 215th alliance of Chixin Xuntian!
